Lilly's POV

I ground my teeth angerly as I packed. Why did Petunia hate me so much?! It was my last year at Hogwarts, and she said she expected me out a week after coming back. Mum and dad had died this spring shortly after I returned from school, and she had enherited the house. Her dispicable husband had even said that she was being generous by letting me stay that long.

Everything was packed, and I sent it all to the leaky cauldron so I wouldn't have to come back. I pulled my trunk that I had magicly charmed to hold everything out the door behind me. I walked into the kitchen and woodenly handed her the spare key. I glared with my peircing green eyes and said, "I'm not coming back. You'll never see me again. I might send you a letter, but I'm not sure. Goodbye."

I walked out, and called the night bus.

I took the bus to the leaky cauldron and got a room. The books and things I needed for this year at school had already been bought earlier, and I collapsed onto my bed. Sleep over took me, and when I woke up it was dinner time. Counting my coins, I decided to go to a muggle diner down the street, I had enough muggle money for it.

Walking over, I got a table and quickly ordered. When my drink came, I took a sip and looked down at the book I'd brought to read. The plate of food was set in front of me, and I started eating.

About half way through my meal, a boy about my age with sleek, greasy blonde hair, a cruel smirk on his face, and acne who was several inches taller than me, sauntered over and seated himself in front of me.

I looked up and said rudely in the most impolite tone I could manage, when I caught him staring at my body hungrily, "What do you want?"

He said without looking away from my breasts that were covered with a modest shirt, "You, baby. My parents are out of town, what do you say we go to my place and some 'fun'?" I glared at him in disgust.

"No." I said flatly. "I'd like that as much as you'd like for me to beat you into a bloody pulp. Go away."

He leaned closer and I leaned away from him. He spent ten minutes making pick up lines and being a pig before I signaled the waiter for my check. He brought it and I quickly paid and left without another word to the boy. I rushed down the street, hoping to escape him without magic.

It was useless though and he followed me. He followed me as I ran up the street. We were almost to the leaky cauldron when he gripped my arm roughly and yanked me into an ally. My wand flew from my pocked and rolled out of sight, under a dumpster. I managed to get in several shots, but in the end, it was useless as he was much larger than me and very strong.

I screamed and trashed as he pinned my arms against the wall with one hand while he started groping me. Shifting my legs I brought my knee up between his thighs and kneed him. His gripp on me faultered and I pushed him away, kicking him twice, once in the stomach, and again in face before taking off running. He must have recovered from that quickly, because he was behind me right away.

He grabbed my arms, trying to pull me back. Struggling away, he started cussing at me, calling me names and saying that I would pay for hurting him.

We were almost to the mouth of the ally, and I cried out, "HELP!" I hated asking for help, but realistically, no way would I beat or get away from him safely without my wand. A group of four rounded the corner, and everyone froze for a moment. The little bastard who was trying to rape me because he was caught, me because the four men who had come to my aid were known to me. They were my most hated enemys before last year, and had resently become good friends of mine. The maurarders. James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Petter Pettigrew.

And my rescurers froze because they knew me. James was the first to react, quickly followed by Remus, then Sirius, and lastly, Peter whimpered before shouting for him to let me go and drew his wand. James pounced, knocking the boy off of me, and Remus ensured I was okay before he joined James and Sirius in beating him into a bloody pulp. James was the first to leave the brutality, kneeling where I was sitting and gently hugging me. I burried my head in his neck and clutched his jacket, hugging him as I trembled.

Sirius was the second to abandon the boy; in the last year of school we had become close friends, and he was like a brother to me. Remus had finished beating him earlier but was shouting at him, using words I wasn't aware he knew as he cussed out the criminal. He was usually very kind and nonviolent person, so this was a bit suprising. However it made since, his fiancé Lupita from Hogwarts was raped and almost killed last year, and he had been so broken up he wasn't there to protect her.

Lupita was one of my room mates and and close friend to almost everyone in Hogwarts, but she had only told James, Sirius, Peter, Remus, and I. She often had nightmares, so it was nesseary that someone in our dorm knew. Remus checked the blue and purple bruise's that were already forming on my pale wrists and declared that it would hurt but nothing that needed professional medical attention.

We found my wand and hurried to the leaky cauldron. Remus used a phone to call an ambulence for the boy because though he would be glad the threat to the world was gone, he didn't want to be responcible for the death of someone. We entered the leaky cauldron, and I quickly led them all up to my room.

The minute we made it through the door my legs went wobbly and I stumbled over to the bed. James supported me until I was able to fall onto the bed, and then he sat beside me with Sirius on my other side. Remus went to find Lupita and Peter had disappeared down stairs.

I leaned into James and relaxed. Crisis averted, literally. Sirius rubbed my back before he said, "I'm going to go get some food. I'll be back later." He probably gustured something to James behind my back, because James said gruffly with a brotherly swat at his shoulder, "Get the hell out of here, Black."

The boy in question exited the room with a muttered 'jerk'. We sat on my bed for a while, with me clinging to him before I started drifting off. He shifted, carfully placing me back on the bed as he prepared to leave, but I reached out and grabbed his jacket to stop him.

"No," I pleaded, half asleep, "Stay. I don't want to be alone." He nodded and sat on the bed, pulling my head into his lap and running his hands through my hair. I sighed contently at the feeling of his fingers combing through the long scarlet stands. I fell asleep like that, and I heard him whisper as I drifted in a memory I didn't remember till years later, "I love you Lilly Evens. Ever since that first day on the Hogwarts express when you stood up for Severus, and I will always love you."

They say that home is where the heart is, and if that's true then I guess that from that day till the day we died protecting our son, my home was wherever James was. Now, twenty three years after our death, we watched with pride and love as our son and daughter-in-law, Ginny Potter-Weasely kissed in a love filled embrace as they discovered that they were pregnent with their first child. Our first grandchild, hopfully of many more.
